    could live up to its potential. It turns out that the true ?deception? comes from the box?s feature list, because although it?s obvious Midway had a lot of great ideas for the latest in its long line of blood-splattering fighters, most of them feel undeveloped and lacking in polish. Read more

    Shang Tsung and Quan Chi then turned on each other, with Quan Chi being victorious. The victory was short lived, though, as the Dragon King, Onaga, former ruler of Outworld then returned. A new alliance was formed between the Deadly Alliance and Raiden to try and stop Onaga, but it was futile. Raiden sacrificed himself, hoping to not only destroy Onaga, but also the Deadly Alliance. He only succeeded in (possibly) killing the sorcerous duo. Onaga was unharmed. Read more

It's intense, frenetic, strategic, violent and... Read more

    All told, Deception for GameCube is a rock solid, over-the-top late-comer that didn't really need to come at all. Not that it's bad, it's just not particularly good enough to warrant owning. Renting? For sure. Read more

  5. Mortal Kombat: Deception (Second Opinion) Review

    Overall, Mortal Kombat: Deception could easily be considered the best MK franchise iteration to have been birthed since Mortal Kombat II on the SNES. There is a great number of fighters to choose from, and each bring their own unique style of kombat to the game’s atmosphere to prevent boredom from possibly ever happening. It’s no shocker that with a story as good as Deception has, there is a lot for you to experience and want to come back to. It was nice to see... Read more
